# Task Runner
[](https://drone.fpfis.eu/openeuropa/task-runner)
[](https://packagist.org/packages/openeuropa/task-runner)
PHP task runner based on [Robo](http://robo.li), focused on extensibility.

- [Configuration](#configuration)
- [Built-in commands](#built-in-commands)
- [Expose custom commands as YAML configuration](#expose-custom-commands-as-yaml-configuration)
- [Expose custom commands as PHP classes](#expose-custom-commands-as-php-classes)
## Installation
Install it with [Composer](https://getcomposer.org):
```bash
composer require openeuropa/task-runner
```
After installation run `./vendor/bin/run` for a list of available commands.
### Using Docker Compose
Alternatively, you can build a development site using [Docker](https://www.docker.com/get-docker) and
[Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/) with the provided configuration.
Docker provides the necessary services and tools to get the tests running, regardless of your local host configuration.
#### Requirements:
- [Docker](https://www.docker.com/get-docker)
- [Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/)
#### Configuration
By default, Docker Compose reads two files, a `docker-compose.yml` and an optional `docker-compose.override.yml` file.
By convention, the `docker-compose.yml` contains your base configuration and it's provided by default.
The override file, as its name implies, can contain configuration overrides for existing services or entirely new
services.
If a service is defined in both files, Docker Compose merges the configurations.
Find more information on Docker Compose extension mechanism on [the official Docker Compose documentation](https://docs.docker.com/compose/extends/).
#### Usage
To start, run:
```bash
docker-compose up
```
It's advised to not daemonize `docker-compose` so you can turn it off (`CTRL+C`) quickly when you're done working.
However, if you'd like to daemonize it, you have to add the flag `-d`:
```bash
docker-compose up -d
```
Then:
```bash
docker-compose exec web composer install
```
#### Running the tests
To run the grumphp checks:
```bash
docker-compose exec web ./vendor/bin/grumphp run
```
To run the phpunit tests:
```bash
docker-compose exec web ./vendor/bin/phpunit
```
## Configuration
Task Runner provides a useful command (`config`) that allows inspecting and
debugging the configuration. To find out how can be used, run:
```bash
./vendor/bin/run config --help
```
Task Runner commands can be customized in two ways:
1. By setting arguments and options when running a command.
2. By providing default values in configuration files. The task runner will read
the following files in the specified order. Options supplied in later files
will override earlier ones:
* The defaults provided by Task Runner. This file is located inside the Task
Runner repository in `config/runner.yml`.
* `runner.yml.dist` - project specific defaults. This file should be placed
in the root folder of the project that depends on the Task Runner. Use
this file to declare default options which are expected to work with your
application under regular circumstances. This file should be committed in
the project.
* Third parties might implement config providers to modify the config. A
config provider is a class implementing the `ConfigProviderInterface`.
Such a class should be placed under the `TaskRunner\ConfigProviders`
relative namespace. For instance when `Some\Namespace` points to `src/`
directory, then the config provider class should be placed under the
`src/TaskRunner/ConfigProviders` directory and will have the namespace set
to `Some\Namespace\TaskRunner\ConfigProviders`. The class name should end
with the `ConfigProvider` suffix. Use the `::provide()` method to alter
the configuration object. A `@priority` annotation tag can be defined in
the class docblock in order to determine the order in which the config
providers are running. If omitted, `@priority 0` is assumed. This
mechanism allows also to insert custom YAML config files in the flow, see
the following example:
```
namespace Some\Namespace\TaskRunner\ConfigProviders;
use OpenEuropa\TaskRunner\Contract\ConfigProviderInterface;
use OpenEuropa\TaskRunner\Traits\ConfigFromFilesTrait;
use Robo\Config\Config;
/**
* @priority 100
*/
class AddCustomFileConfigProvider implements ConfigProviderInterface
{
use ConfigFromFilesTrait;
public static function provide(Config $config): void
{
// Load the configuration from custom.yml and custom2.yml and
// apply it to the configuration object. This will override config
// from runner.yml.dist (which has priority 1500) but get
// overridden by the config from runner.yml (priority -1000).
static::importFromFiles($config, [
'custom.yml',
'custom2.yml',
]);
}
}
```
* `runner.yml` - project specific user overrides. This file is also located
in the root folder of the project that depends on the Task Runner. This
file can be used to override options with values that are specific to the
user's local environment. It is considered good practice to add this file
to `.gitignore` to prevent `runner.yml` from being accidentally committed
in the project repository.
* User provided global overrides stored in environment variables. These can
be used to define environment specific configuration that applies to all
projects that use the Task Runner, such as database credentials and the
Github access token. The following locations will be checked and the first
one that is found will be used:
* `$OPENEUROPA_TASKRUNNER_CONFIG`
* `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/openeuropa/taskrunner/runner.yml`
* `$HOME/.config/openeuropa/taskrunner/runner.yml`
- [Installation](#installation)
A list of default values, with a brief explanation, can be found at the default
[`runner.yml`](./config/runner.yml).
## Built-in commands
The Task Runner comes with the following built-in commands:
| Command | Description |
| ---------------------------- |-------------|
| `changelog:generate` | Generate a changelog for the current project based on its GitHub issues and pull requests |
| `drupal:site-install` | Install a target Drupal site using default configuration values and/or CLI options |
| `drupal:site-pre-install` | Run Drupal pre-install commands as listed under the `drupal.pre_install` property |
| `drupal:site-post-install` | Run Drupal post-install commands as listed under the `drupal.post_install` property |
| `drupal:settings-setup` | Setup default Drupal settings file by appending values specified at `drupal.settings` |
| `drupal:drush-setup` | Setup Drush 8 and 9 configuration files |
| `release:create-archive` | Create and archive a release for the current project |
Run `./vendor/bin/run help [command-name]` for more information about each command's capabilities.
## Expose "dynamic" commands as YAML configuration
The Task Runner allows you to expose new commands by just listing its [tasks](http://robo.li/getting-started/#tasks)
under the `commands:` property in `runner.yml.dist`/`runner.yml`.
For example, the following YAML portion will expose two dynamic commands, `drupal:site-setup` and `setup:behat`:
```yaml
commands:
drupal:site-setup:
- { task: "chmod", file: "${drupal.root}/sites", permissions: 0774, recursive: true }
- { task: "symlink", from: "../../custom/modules", to: "${drupal.root}/modules/custom" }
- { task: "symlink", from: "../../custom/themes", to: "${drupal.root}/themes/custom" }
- { task: "run", command: "drupal:drush-setup" }
- { task: "run", command: "drupal:settings-setup" }
- { task: "run", command: "setup:behat" }
- "./vendor/bin/drush --root=$(pwd)/${drupal.root} cr"
setup:behat:
- { task: "process", source: "behat.yml.dist", destination: "behat.yml" }
```
Commands can reference each-other, allowing for complex scenarios to be implemented with relative ease.
At the moment the following tasks are supported (optional argument default values in parenthesis):
| Task | Task | Arguments |
| ------------- | ---------------------------- | --------- |
| `mkdir` | `taskFilesystemStack()` | `dir`, `mode` (0777) |
| `touch` | `taskFilesystemStack()` | `file`, `time` (current time), `atime` (current time) |
| `copy` | `taskFilesystemStack()` | `from`, `to`, `force` (false) |
| `chmod` | `taskFilesystemStack()` | `file`, `permissions`, `umask` (0000), `recursive` (false) |
| `chgrp` | `taskFilesystemStack()` | `file`, `group`, `recursive` (false) |
| `chown` | `taskFilesystemStack()` | `file`, `user`, `recursive` (false) |
| `remove` | `taskFilesystemStack()` | `file` |
| `rename` | `taskFilesystemStack()` | `from`, `to`, `force` (false) |
| `symlink` | `taskFilesystemStack()` | `from`, `to`, `copyOnWindows` (false) |
| `mirror` | `taskFilesystemStack()` | `from`, `to` |
| `process` | `taskProcessConfigFile()` | `from`, `to` |
| `process-php` | `taskAppendConfiguration()` | `type: append`, `config`, `source`, `destination`, `override` (false) |
| `process-php` | `taskPrependConfiguration()` | `type: prepend`, `config`, `source`, `destination`, `override` (false) |
| `process-php` | `taskWriteConfiguration()` | `type: write`, `config`, `source`, `destination`, `override` (false) |
| `run` | `taskExec()` | `command`, `arguments`, `options` (will run `./vendor/bin/run [command] [argument1] [argument2] ... --[option1]=[value1] --[option2]=[value2] ...`) |
Tasks provided as plain-text strings will be executed as is in the current working directory.
## Expose custom commands as PHP classes
More complex commands can be provided by creating Task Runner command classes within your project's PSR-4 namespace.
For example, given you have the following PSR-4 namespace in your `composer.json`:
```json
{
"autoload": {
"psr-4": {
"My\\Project\\": "./src/"
}
}
}
```
Then you can expose extra commands by creating one or more classes under `./src/TaskRunner/Commands`, as shown in the
example below:
```php
